The customer

Surya Citra Televisi (SCTV) is the leading media company in Indonesia. Founded in 1990, SCTV has achieved many accolades such as Asian Television Awards, Far Eastern Economic Review as Top 200 Leading Company in Asia Pacific, and Panasonic Awards. SCTV broadcasts in 240 cities and reaches over 175 million audiences nationwide. It is the first media company in Indonesia to fully adopt a digital platform to broadcast its content since 2008, the same year SCTV started its partnership with Fujitsu. In 2014, SCTV managed to achieve the top audience share in Indonesia.

The challenge

Surya Citra Televisi (SCTV) is one of the earliest media companies to focus on delivering digital content. SCTV started digitizing content several years ago and has converted more than a thousand hours of digital video playback since. Its continually growing library generates the need for high capacity and scalable storage. As every department needs to access content daily, they needed to minimize working hours in order to share the network.

The solution

Fujitsu provided a high capacity storage solution for digital content management. Digital content is stored in Fujitsu storage to be broadcast through digital media channels.

The benefit

High capacity storage

Minimum cost per terabyte will eventually generate minimum total cost of ownership

Better form factor with minimum space consumption

Better redundancy options, e.g. power supply and network

Single management system that enables IT team to monitor three storage systems in two locations simultaneously
